What is GoodWatch, and what does it do?

A different take on discovering movies and shows, live at goodwatch.app: personalized recommendations from your ratings, classification by hundreds of categories, streaming availability, and aggregated IMDb, Metacritic, and Rotten Tomatoes scores.

Does GoodWatch use Jev anywhere?

The captured README does not mention Jev. The project enters this directory through the logicrw list attribution, and nothing in the repo text documents a Jev integration, so treat any Jev usage as unverified.

How do I run GoodWatch locally?

Clone the monorepo, register for a free TMDB API key, copy .env.example to .env inside goodwatch-webapp and fill in the required secrets, then run npm install and npm run dev from that directory. The README says the Run Locally guide is outdated.

What is the Fingerprint feature?

It classifies movies and TV shows by hundreds of meaningful categories such as Emotions, Plot, Subgenres, Visual Style, and Cultural Context, which feeds the similarity search and recommendations backed by a Qdrant vector database.

How does it aggregate ratings and streaming data?

GoodWatch gathers IMDb, Metacritic, and Rotten Tomatoes ratings in one place and shows where each title streams across services such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, sourced from TMDB data in the open webapp.

Who maintains GoodWatch, and how do I contribute?

The project is maintained by alp82 with a living roadmap in GitHub issue 52, periodic research to reassess priorities, and a Discord community; the README says pull requests are welcome.

What does the README admit is incomplete?

The Run Locally guide is explicitly labeled outdated, and the server guide for running the whole infrastructure is described as far from complete, with sections still marked TODO; contributors are pointed to the Discord community instead.

Quickstart

bash

cd goodwatch-webapp
npm install
npm run dev

Watch out

Copy reviewed against the repo README on 2026-10-15. The captured README does not mention Jev, benchmarks, or pricing, so the listing rests on the logicrw attribution alone. The README also labels its own Run Locally guide outdated, so treat the setup steps as a starting point.

Jev at home: voice pipelines, Assist routing, and sentinels

Oct 16, 2026

How Home Assistant conversation agents, macOS voice pipelines, and an advisory sentinel put a fast typed decision in the loop — one call per utterance, thresholds in code, and a daily token budget.

Jev-based SEO tools split the crawl from the call: deterministic crawlers count and parse, while typed judgments rank fixes, place internal links, score search results, and track AI-answer mentions — with costs and caveats attached.

Jev on the Gateways: Vercel, Workers AI, and OpenRouter

Oct 12, 2026

The request shape barely changes across surfaces; the surrounding contract does. When to call the API directly and when a gateway, a Worker binding, or a router entry earns its extra hop.
